Some things are working in my favour I've not had time to list them all.
But of all the upcoming events W is very excited about my night out with my new friends which has now turned in to a date for W & I. She said in a very girly way that this will be our first night out together in a long time. and left a big pause at the end of it. I think she was hinting at somthing but I won't get my hopes up. She is already showing me the outfits she wants to wear, we've whittled it down to 2 possibilities from 5 or 6 probables. Helping a woman chose an outfit is sooo much easier when you know how to validate.
W was then on at me to buy a new shirt, and not just any shirt but something from the upmarket shops. She wants me (in her words) to take pride in my appearance, cos all my new friends will be dressed that way. Not so, and this led to a bit of a discussion about how much money I should spend on cloths. We ended up agreeing on something, and I thanked W for the shirts she'd brought for me in the past cos now I fully understand the sentiment behind them. W said she was my wife and she was entitled to buy me shirts to make me look smart. W always used to buy my clothes and without too much appreciation from me.
So with all the talk of family disharmony, the week ends on a positive note for me.
